A doctoral project is a challenging and sometimes demanding endeavor. It requires a lot of energy, commitment and stamina. Hence, maintaining a good work-life-balance is key and will remain relevant throughout your professional life. A large number of employees is affected by stress-related disease at some point of their career. However, it does not have to get that far!
Would you like to actively prepare and protect yourself against a potential burnout? Do you feel exhausted and would like to know how to realign and balance your vitality and your personal life with your commitment for your doctoral project?
This workshop provides you with an overview of warning signals and critical factors. You will receive checklists in order to identify relevant signals at an early stage. Special interest will be paid to factors that enhance your health and prove useful as “first aid kit” when feeling exhausted.
Case examples and suggestions together with practical exercises and self-reflection help you transfer your newly acquired knowledge. At the end of the workshop, you will be able to identify critical pitfalls coming from stress, and handle them in a more relaxed and constructive way thus using them for your own benefit.
